When to use Managed Services
With Managed Services you’ll get a fixed price for your project up front. This can be a valuable tool for managing your project and ensuring that it stays on track and within budget.
Predictability: Knowing the total cost of labor up front provides our clients with certainty and predictability. Knowing the exact cost of labor up front can help you create an accurate budget plan around your projects more effectively. This is especially important for large or complex projects, where the cost of labor can be a significant factor.
Cost Overruns: Having the total cost of labor before the project begins can help you avoid cost overruns. When the cost of labor is not fixed, there is always a risk that it could increase unexpectedly. This kind of cost overrun can be disruptive and expensive. A fixed price for labor helps mitigate this risk.
Efficiency: This model encourages efficiency. We know we’re working with a fixed price to complete your project, and we’re motivated to get the job done on time and within budget. This saves you money in the long run.
Under the Managed Services model you pay per unit produced, not for staff hours. You’ll never see a timecard for our staff under this model. Here are some of the benefits associated with removing this administrative burden:
Give your team more time: With this model, you eliminate the need to track timesheets and remove the burden of all tasks related to payroll. This reduces administrative responsibilities for your team and frees up their time to focus on more strategic tasks.
A small business with 10 employees could save up to 10 hours per week by eliminating these tasks. This would free up the time of the business owner or HR manager to focus on other tasks, such as marketing or customer service.
A large corporation with 1,000 employees could save up to 100 hours per week by eliminating these tasks. This would free up the time of several employees, who could then be redeployed to other departments or projects.
Increased flexibility: We can scale our services to meet your changing needs. Under this model, you set the deadline and requirements, and we’ll handle the rest. We’ll manage and adjust the number of workers needed to complete your project on time and on budget without the variable costs associated with payroll or timekeeping under a traditional staffing agreement.
In the world of warehouses and manufacturing, meeting tight ship dates is often the ultimate challenge. We understand that every moment counts, and delays can be costly. That’s why we maintain an extensive pipeline of trained workers who are always ready to meet your project deadlines.
With Managed Services, you gain control and predictability over your project costs, even in the face of tight deadlines. Here’s how it helps:
Cost Transparency: No more budget surprises. Our per unit pricing model ensures complete transparency in your project costs. You’ll know the exact cost associated with each unit, enabling you to plan and allocate resources with precision. This transparency extends beyond the surface, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of your expenditure and aiding in strategic financial decision-making.
Streamlined Operations: In the fast-paced world of warehouses and manufacturing, precision is paramount. Our Managed Services model actively promotes streamlined operations by emphasizing efficient processes. This not only reduces unnecessary waste but also maximizes overall productivity. The result is a well-oiled machine capable of meeting tight ship dates without sacrificing quality or efficiency.
Quick Decision-Making: Time is a precious commodity, especially when tight ship dates are involved. Our per unit pricing model simplifies budgeting, enabling you to make swift and informed decisions. This streamlined approach to decision-making ensures that your project stays on track, approvals are expedited, and adjustments can be made promptly to meet challenging timelines.
Customizable Solutions: We understand that every project is unique, and ship dates can vary. Our Managed Services offer a high level of customization, allowing you to tailor your project to meet specific ship dates. This flexibility ensures that our services align seamlessly with your unique requirements, providing a tailored solution that enhances efficiency and meets your project’s individual needs.
Predictable Outcomes: Locking in per unit costs upfront provides a solid foundation for predicting your project’s total expenses. This predictability is a key factor in confidently navigating tight ship dates. With a clear understanding of costs from the outset, you can plan effectively, make informed decisions, and execute your project with the assurance of predictable outcomes.
We take pride in helping numerous warehouses and manufacturing companies throughout the Puget Sound overcome the challenges of tight ship dates with our per unit pricing model. Your success is our priority, and we’re here to help you meet your deadlines with confidence.
Labor shortages and high turnover rates can severely impact productivity and efficiency, presenting formidable challenges for warehouses and manufacturing companies. We understand these challenges and our Managed Services model offers a tailored solution designed to address your specific needs.
Stability Amidst Labor Fluctuations: In times of labor shortages and turnover, uncertainty can hinder progress. Managed Services provide the stability you need. Regardless of workforce changes, you can confidently predict project costs, ensuring continuity and reliability in your operations.
Efficiency Enhancement: Labor shortages often force organizations to juggle tasks, risking inefficiencies. Our Managed Services program actively promotes the efficient use of resources, guaranteeing that every unit is produced with precision and minimal waste. This approach not only meets your immediate needs but also enhances overall operational efficiency.
Cost Control: With fixed per unit costs, you gain unparalleled control over your budget. This predictability empowers you to engage in better financial planning and decision-making. Understanding the exact cost associated with each unit ensures that your budget remains stable and your financial resources are allocated strategically.
Streamlined Training: High turnover rates can result in continuous training efforts, consuming valuable time and resources. Per unit pricing simplifies workforce management, reducing the time and resources required for onboarding. This streamlined training process enables you to maintain a skilled and efficient workforce even in dynamic labor environments.
